So the NBA is really expecting the east coast to stay up for a 10:30PM start time on a Tuesday?

[Jplaya2023]

I mean its been like that for years!!! But i did think they should start the knicks at 7:30 and denver at 10

 

[RubioTheCruel]

Most NY rangers games start at 7pm

They sell out just like the Knicks do

People will show up to games at any time in these cities that have legit fans ..they could have it at 2am and the arena will be filled

It’s all done for the tv viewing audience

True but I've been to games with my job, you'll see people walk in halfway through the 1st period

As games go to streaming with the ability to watch these games wherever you want, it’s gonna be harder to justify these super late games. People on the west coast don’t have to be in their living room with their remote control in their hands when the game starts

 

[dh86]

You expect west coast fans to leave work at 3pm to watch an NBA game

Drink a cold brew

Turn that game on your phone til you get home. Everyone can do that now so no need for 10:30 playoff games

Y'all lucky.

Dallas, we have Stars and Mavs playing at the same damn time EVERY FUKKING GAME dang near in the playoffs. It's fun but kinda wish they alternated days.

There's enough of us out here. We show up any time the usual remix of the "How the fukk do people live in Arizona/Nevada/the desert" thread gets made.

Not go cap. I feel asleep watching the okc mavs game and that started at 9

 

[The_Sheff]

If at all possible, they are not starting games in MSG at 7pm. Thats still too early for people to get to the games in NYC, due to traffic in Manhattan. This is why Knicks and Nets games are 7:30 during the regular season. People trying to get home from work, and then trains out to MSG are a bytch in lower Manhattan.

I concur that 8pm is late start, but anything before 7:30pm in Manhattan is a no go on a weekday.

The Rangers, Mets, and Yankees start before 7:30. The Knicks fans can make it, especially the ones with playoff tickets.

10:30?? They bugging the fukk out. Imma be knocked out.

 

[thaKEAF]

I was struggling like hell to make it through the 4th of the mavs game lol. I’ll definitely be sleep before halftime damn near

 

[threattonature]

I'm not goin lie.. when I seen the Mavs game was just hitting the 3rd quarter damn near 11:45 pm I was like wtf lol.

Most years I was glued to every playoff game sleep be damned. This year I'm saying fukk all that, I'm too damn old to be passing on sleep lol.

Facts. I have an important meeting at 8am so wanna get my rest in. fukked up because I wanna see how Ant and them boys respond tonight.

 

[MasterThought]

I saw the start time of the nuggets wolves game tonight and immediately said "nope, won't be watching past the 1st quarter tonight".

It sucks.
